The Telangana forest department began work to trap a leopard moving in the districts of Wanaparthy and Narayanpet that is moving around villages and attacking cattle.
The local villagers met the forest officials and complained about the leopard attacks on cattle in remote villages near the forest frequently.
The local forest officials informed the higher officials based in Hyderabad who accorded the required permissions to the local officials to track and trap the leopard before shifting to the Amrabad Reserve Forest.
